New House: & Guto'r Glyn in 1492Richard Loomis, 2005 - 140 sider New House brings to life an imaginary monastery in Wales, through the medium of invented documents that reflect fifteen centuries of history and prayer. The historical essay, "Guto'r Glyn in 1492," complements the fictional New House by examining an actual fifteenth-century Welsh poet in the age when Europe was beginning to map the New World. |
